☆, Chapter 119 Aning, I don’t want to be alone...

On the second day of the New Year, Shu Wanning got up earlier than usual.

She sat in front of the dressing mirror, put on some light makeup, and curled her hair.

It was still the apricot knitted suit from last time, with a sky blue cashmere coat on the outside, and finally a beige scarf.

Yan He had been waiting nearby. After receiving the news, he sent her to the entrance of the amusement park and then started all the rides.

There was snow on many facilities, but luckily he had someone clean it up early in the morning.

Shu Wanning was standing at the door. She heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw Wen Yuci wearing a navy blue coat.

Shu Wanning: "You're following me again."

Her voice was not loud, but Wen Yuci heard every word clearly.

He walked forward a few steps, stepped on the white snow and stood beside her, and replied: "I just wanted to return the umbrella to you, and I happened to see you going out."

There seemed to be the smell of fireworks in the air. Shu Wanning turned her head to look at him and said, "Then play with me for a while."

Wen Yuci followed her half a step behind, playing with her on the carousel, the cave train, the shooting game, the pirate ship...

The weather was too cold and they didn't play many activities. When the two of them stood in front of the Ferris wheel, Shu Wanning's face was already red from the cold.

"Let's go back first." Wen Yuci advised softly, "It's too cold, you'll catch a cold."

Shu Wanning pulled her scarf closer, her eyelids drooping and she looked listless.

She shook her head: "Just sit for a while and then go back."

Wen Yuci sat opposite her and saw that she always tilted her head to look out the window, her thin little face half hidden in the scarf.

Shu Wanning blinked slowly, watching the Ferris wheel gradually rise higher. She turned around and met Wen Yuci's worried eyes.

Her hands in her pockets gradually curled up, and the hot air she exhaled was hot.

"Wen Yuci, I don't feel well..."

The person in front of me gradually became blurry and my consciousness gradually faded.

Wen Yuci quickly sat down beside her, reached out to touch her forehead, but withdrew his hand because he was burned.

"You have a fever, I'll take you to the hospital!"

Regardless of whether she allowed him to hold him or not, he took off his coat, put it around her, and held her in his arms.

The Ferris wheel had just stopped when he ran out holding someone in his arms, but the person in his arms had already fallen into a coma.

In the car, he hugged her tightly. Her body was incredibly hot and her eyes were closed. Wen Yuci felt panic in his heart and his hands were shaking as he held her.

Yan He made a phone call and found Cen You waiting at the hospital entrance. When he arrived, he was immediately pushed to the emergency room.

Shu Wanning has always been in poor health. After Wen Yuci's accident, she worked overtime, suffered from hunger and cold, but she did not get sick. This time, the disease came with great force.

No problems were found, the patient was just having a fever and was unconscious. Neither medication nor physical cooling was effective.

Qiu Yuerong came to see him once, looking a little solemn, and stayed in the corridor and refused to leave.

Late at night, Wen Yuci still used a wet towel to wipe her body to cool her down. The cool towel changed temperature in just a few seconds on her forehead.

Wen Yuci frowned and was nervous, worried that she would develop other problems due to the fever.

He sat at the head of the bed, holding her hot hand, stroking it gently, one by one, as if he were treating a fragile porcelain doll.

"A Ning...you can punish me however you want, but don't punish yourself..."

He murmured softly, burying his face in her palm. His heart felt like someone was pinching it tightly, making it difficult for him to breathe. Every breath he took was filled with extreme pain.

From the moment she left Qianyue Bay, he hoped every minute and every second that she would come back to him.

Every time he opened the bedroom door, he was very cautious, hoping to see another surprise.

But now he just wants her to be healthy.

Wen Yuci stayed awake all night and kept trying to cool herself down physically, but her temperature seemed to be continuing to rise.

Qiu Yuerong stood by the bed, her expression more serious than ever. "We can't find out what's causing the persistent high fever. And... Wan Ning's health indicators aren't looking good."

Wen Yuci looked up at her, his eyes were bloodshot, and his brows were full of worry for her.

"Will it be okay?" he asked.

Qiu Yuerong didn't answer. This illness had come on with such ferocity that it caught everyone off guard. Looking at her fever that wouldn't go away, she had no idea what was happening.

Wen Yuci stayed by the bed, never leaving except to go to the bathroom. Around noon, the person on the bed finally woke up.

She drowsily said she wanted to drink some water, so Wen Yuci quickly sat down at the head of the bed and helped her up. He leaned her against him and took the warm water from the bedside table.

He touched her lips with the straw and coaxed her: "It's warm, drink a couple of sips."

The person on his body was dizzy from the fever and didn't say a word. He just did as he said and gulped down a few gulps of water.

Wen Yuci took the medicine beside her. Qiu Yuerong had instructed that she could only take it after she woke up.

He handed the pill to her lips, touched her forehead and coaxed her: "Come on, open your mouth and take the medicine."

But she turned her head away, closed her lips and refused to take the medicine. The tears from the corners of her eyes fell on his hand, almost burning it.

"Be good, be obedient, the fever will go away after taking the medicine..."

Wen Yuci coaxed her patiently and held her to prevent her from moving, but she just kept crying. Her nose was already blocked, and now it was even more blocked.

He looked at the medicine in his palm, hardened his heart and pinched her face. The pain forced her to open her mouth, and he took the opportunity to stuff the medicine into her mouth.

Then he fed her the medicine through the straw: "Okay, just drink some water and swallow it."

Seeing her drink the water, he rubbed her forehead with his cheek with heartache, and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a tissue.

The person in his arms whispered softly, and he leaned his ear over to hear what she said.

She said: “It’s too bitter…”

He swallowed the bitterness in his throat with heartache, helped the person lie down, and then used a towel to cool him down physically.

Like her, he had not eaten for a day and a night. Wen Yuming knocked on the door and came in, putting the lunch box on the table.

"Brother, eat something. If you exhaust yourself again, your sister-in-law will be angry again."

He sat there without moving. Wen Yuming patted his shoulder and said, "Eat something."

Wen Yuci nodded, got up and went to eat. After casually eating a few mouthfuls of rice to satisfy his body's needs, he sat by the bed and acted like a guardian angel to his wife.

The person on the bed was sleeping restlessly, with a frown on his face, mumbling as if he was having a nightmare.

Wen Yuci took her hand, kissed her fingertips, and whispered with a trembling voice of fear: "Aning, I've already lost you once..."

His back slumped, and he leaned on her palm, pleading in his voice: "Aning, I don't want to be alone..."

Several people outside the ward looked worried. Cen You put his arm around Qiu Yuerong's waist and advised, "Go home and rest first. I'll tell you as soon as I have any news."

Qiu Yuerong nodded and instructed, "Give Wan Ning another fever-reducing injection at 11 o'clock tonight, and give him another fever-reducing medicine if he wakes up."

She looked back every few steps, and everyone was worried these past two days.
